Good luck with it, but personally i think you should just stick to trying things yourself and seeing how you find them before talking and planning to release it.

I don't want to be rude, but have you actually thought about what the changes you've made will do to the car, or have you just thought up what it would look like in your head and had a go at it?

I'm not knocking you at all as i think it's impressive someone your age is so interested in the hobby and willing to get the tools out to make things.

I just can't help but think you seem dead set on making / releasing a product when to be honest if you're in it to enjoy racing and improve your driving you would be far better just getting a B4 and racing it - they don't need improving (yet).

What i'm trying to say is that the best way to really gain an understanding of what does and doesn't work on these cars is to race them, and get good at it! Fair enough try different set-ups and Tyres etc, (believe me, this alone can throw you miles off or even on the pace) and then once you think you really understand the way a car works have a go at changing things but they have to be done with reason. You wouldn't get any old person re-designing the current Ferrari F1 car just by thinking of different things to try - there has to be logic to this sort of thing.
